Einstürzende Neubauten
german industrial/post punk band. go listen.
blixa bargeld is kind of scary. like even nick cave (blixa was in the bad seeds for a while) thought he was a bit freaky, but also 'the most beautiful man in the world'. he has this really low rough voice and in the eighties he was really skinny with spiky blonde goth hair and he has this honestly unearthly demon ghost scream that will never not be unsettling in a cool way. a lot of their shows sort of ended in riots/property damage/theft. i think they sort of invented industrial music in west berlin. they liked stealing stuff from construction sites to use as instruments.
a lot of their early music is sort of hitting metal stuff and machine noises with feedback guitar and shouting in german, but some of the stuff on 'silence is sexy' is really touching and beautiful.
some of the best songs -
the garden
sabrina
sonnenbarke
kollaps
installation no.1
and that's the the ones i can remember the names of (regrettably I do not speak german). but trust me this stuff is super cool.
blixa does cooking tutorials on instagram as well.

* background overview !
so for ten years, it was berllin, her older brother, her mom, and her dad. everything was honestly pretty normal, he worked as a bank teller and her mom was an elementary school teacher. 
when she was ten, her mom was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and began treatment, it was in the middle of her moms chemo treatments that her dad decided he was done and left the three of them on their own. 
her older brother was stuck taking care of them both, berlin helped where she could, but it wasn’t exactly in the means of income. 
her mom did go into remission, but later it came back when berlin was 15. as soon as she turned 16, it was her brothers turn to leave them, claiming he was tired of it.  
from then on, she taught both piano and guitar lessons to anyone who was willing to let her teach as a means to support herself and her mom. 
music was and always has been a massive part of her life and was one of the few things she used as an escape when everyday life was just Too Much, so getting to teach others was something she really liked to do. 
when she was 18, one of her student’s parents had taken an interest in her and invited her over for dinner where they offered her the opportunity to be with them. she said yes and began her secret relationship, mostly using the money they gave her to help pay rent and for groceries, or if it was things, then it allowed her to use the money from lessons for other things. 
she was taking classes at pcc mostly online so that she had more time to be at home, but when the parents she was dating mentioned that the school their child was attending, cape coral, was offering a scholarship they encouraged her to apply. 
* personality !
god she is... kind of a mess. 
like being bitter is probably one of her defining personality traits, and it’s not even towards rich people bc of their money or anything, she’s just like bitter that THIS is the life she ended up with.
she can definitely sit and just have a normal conversation without chewing someone’s head off but she never really seems particularly cheery.
she’s one of those people that likes to run to blow off steam, which isn’t the worst thing in the world, but she’ll leave and go running at like 2am bc she’s stressed. 
is a hardass and thinks she’s like top shit even though she has absolutely no reason to be? thinks because she doesn’t directly “engage” or involve herself in drama that she’s better than everyone
is NOT afraid to call you out on your bullshit bc she really doesn’t have time to deal with it at all 
really, keeps a lot of people at a distance and doesn’t really like getting close to people because they can just leave whenever they want to. and she’ll never admit it but she doesn’t want to get hurt.
she’s double majoring in music (basic she knows) but in audio production as well, eventually she wants to produce music, whether it’s someone else’s or her own.
prefers to keep her private life mostly private? like what and how much she shares honestly just depends on her mood.
* character tropes !
so i was thinking and really, she’s a bit of the Corruptor. which sounds bad, but it’s kinda like, she’s so far up her own ass she thinks she’s better than everyone and that people need to be brought down from their pedestals and clouds. so she tends to poke at people until they show their worst sides, or sides they don’t necessarily like very much. i also saw a little bit of the Femme Fatale in her too, just because she’s gorgeous (duh) and fully uses that to her advantage when she can, like the affair turned sugar daddy/baby situation she has with one of the cape coral parents.
* playlist !
kings — tribe society:
i’ve been through the darkest of caves and suffering one hundred  steps off the end of the road painted with passion, my favorite color hope i’m alive when the story gets old we could be free 
this goes with both her personality and her past tbh. she’s really headstrong and not afraid to take the lead on anything she’s passionate about, but also won’t let anyone else sway her opinion on anything, like at all. it’s like trying to push a round stone up a hill. when looking at her past, it’s not anywhere near rainbows and butterflies. her dad left her family when she was really young, and her mom has been sick with recurrent cancer for years. for a while, her older brother helped take care of her and their mom, but when she turned 16 he left, leaving her to fend for the both of them. as awful as it sounds, all she wants is to be free of everything that’s held her down, she feels bad for wanting out, but she’s so tired of it all now.
monsters — ruelle:
one misstep, you’re mine and you better stay clever if you wanna survive once you cross the line you’ll be wishing you would listen  when you meet your demise 
funnily enough, this isn’t really as serious as it should be. the vibe IS her, i’ll tell you, but this is really where the Scott Disick comes in. like she’s very take no shit but will definitely call you out on your shit. more of a if you make yourself look stupid, or give her the chance to roast/call you out, she will and isn’t really worried about what’s going to come from it. not her fault it could expose or embarrass you for any reason!
something to hold on to — the band camino:
do you ever think of me? after everything give me something to hold on to  i need just a little piece  i’ll take anything 
so this, two things as well. i know the song’s a breakup song but it’s kinda at her dad and brother for just up and leaving her and her mom, kinda like the one time she’ll show any vulnerability is when she really wishes they had stayed. but also, she’s really musical, it’s her one escape and this is probably the style of music she likes to listen to and play.
* aesthetics !
sneaking out at 2am, vintage t-shirts, scrunchies, the satisfaction of snoozing the alarm clock, worn combat boots, long sleepless nights, calloused fingers pulling at guitar strings, quiet sounds of piano, an exhausted body finally laying down to sleep, black coffee, backhanded compliments, stone cold stares, the lure of seduction.
* character inspo !
scott disick (kuwtk) , rebeca de bormujo avalos (elite) , jade west (victorious)
* wanted plots !
i’m still not any better at coming up w plots so this is the Same
general friends: honestly some from childhood, some from high school, others from college, give me New friend with the people coming on scholarship, anything
best friends: someone that’s been by her side for years, someone she’d literally trust with her whole life
ride or dies: honestly what it says, maybe like one or two of them that have been through the thick and thin of it but still have a really strong friendship in the end?
confidant: honestly, probably someone she’s close with, but doesn’t see on a regular basis? 
better influence: someone who can teach her to let go and ease up more, and to not be so angry all the time
exes ( good, bad, anything in between ): you know the drill, hit me with the good angst. (male, female, nb)
roommate: rent ain’t cheap! 
hook ups: you also know this drill, but this is pretty much all berlin does (male, female, nb)
